1001 Albums Summary

Great album all around, honestly one of the best ever. Well rounded, unique, and just a sound that cannot be recreated. My favorite song is Addicted which I had never heard before because I’d never actually listened to the whole thing through but i have 0 complaints. Some of the slower songs (like Love is a Losing Game) are not so my vibe but overall just an amazing album.

This is a top 10 album ever to me. It’s a diverse, layered album with so much history and so much talent. The first time I heard the guitar solo on the chain it was like I was seeing Jesus himself. Rumors means everything to me.

This is one of the best folk albums of all time. The lyricism is so beautiful and every song paints a different picture that transports you to a story. It’s almost like an audiobook the way each song has its in narrative and characters. The harmonies are also some of the best from a folk group and overall this album is a no skip classic. My favorite from Simon and Garfunkel is bookends, but this one comes in as a close second

This would be the best folk album of all time if Joni Mitchell didn’t exist. The lyrics in each song are colorful and describe so much in such few words. America is truly one of the best stories ever told through a song and the album itself blends together so seamlessly. A hazy shade of winter was a nice surprise for me because I’ve never heard it before but it is my new favorite off the album. The album is experimental while remaining true to traditional folk tunes. Just perfect

Very experimental album. Love some songs don’t love some others. A nostalgic sound for me. Love this album but in doses.

I’m not the biggest rem fan, but this album is a classic. It definitely is a sound that got more polished as time went on when on but as a collection of songs, I think it’s a bit under done. There are a few songs I really like but others feel repetitive.
